First World Problems

Hola!

Me and Miss Jamie. 

I need to tell you a story. I know, another one.
Let's begin.

So, I have an iPhone 5 and there is a lock on it that only I can open.
Wahahaha!
Or so I thought...

My roommate Jamie kept taking pictures on it, which drove me nuts.

Me: How do you know my password?
Jamie: *smiles mischievously*
Me: How do you know? Tell me!
Jamie: *still smiles mischievously*
Me: Ok, well I'm just going to change the password then. Ha!

Not too long later, I find unfamiliar photos on my phone. She did it again!

Me: Jamie, how can you possibly know?
Jamie: *smiles mischievously*
Me: Speak! You're freaking me out.
Jamie: *still smiles mischievously*
Me: Are you like a wizard or something because this is impossible?

Hmm, I wonder what that camera on the bottom right is for?

As you can imagine, this cycle went on for far too long. I'd change my password and she'd still be able to take pictures then I'd change my password again until... uh oh... I totally forgot it.

Then my iPhone got disabled for 5 minutes which turned into 15 minutes which turned into an hour which turned into FOREVER. And the worst part about all of this was that I had never backed up my iPhone. I didn't know how. Haha! So, I ended up losing all of the lectures from class I had recorded, pictures of my life, etc.


I wanted to cry.
Like dramatically fall to my knees, slap my palms to the ground, and cry out in agony over this catastrophe, especially when I found out that Jamie never knew my password. Apparently you can just slide the lock screen up and take photos that way.

Well, luckily before this event happened. I was on Twitter and saw these tweets from John Green and I have to admit that it changed my life for the better.

The Urban Dictionary defines "First World Problems" as: Problems from living in a wealthy, industrialized nation that third worlders would probably roll their eyes at.

Aw, crap, I don't know which 1 carat diamond encrusted platinum ring to buy!

After remembering that. I came to the sudden realization that Wow, I was having a First World Problem and that the world wasn't going to end and I wasn't going to die. Sure, what happened sucked, but please... It's nothing.

NOTHING.

There is this buddhist quote that goes: "You only lose what you cling to."

Yoda & Cake. The perfect gif. 

And then there is this similar quote by Yoda in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith that goes: "Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed that is. Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose. The fear of loss is a path to the Dark Side."

Now, in this particular scene Yoda discusses the dangers of attachment, specifically when it comes to people and how we must accept death, which is, um, not what I'm talking about here, haha; however, here is my point: We shouldn't get attached to materialistic things.

If we do and we lose them we are causing ourselves a lot of grief over something that really doesn't matter.

Also, it's really important to cultivate gratitude. Wake up with a grateful heart every morning. Even if you are having a really crappy day, there is always something, no matter how small it is, to be thankful for.

Now, when I complain about something I generally add "First World Problems" and then my whole view on the situation is changed.

Here is a list of some of my First World Problems:

1. Too many food carts! I'm overwhelmed. 
2. Out of toilet paper. I don't want to walk to Safeway. 
3. Ugh, my iPod is dead. I have to charge it. 
4. Netflix isn't loading! 
5. Hardly anyone liked that photo I posted on Instagram. 
6. There's not enough room to put more groceries in the refrigerator. 
7. Ah man, they're out of Ginger Ale on this flight. 
8. Dang it! Gas tank is low, got to go to the gas station today. 
9. Ewe, I have to go do the dentist. 
10. I don't want to get out of my warm, cozy bed to get a glass of water. Oh, but I'm so thirsty! 
11. Long lines at grocery stores. 
12. Burnt my finger getting toast out of the toaster. 
13. Where the hell is the remote?
14. It's super hot outside and the AC is way too cold inside. 
15. Earphones getting tangled up. 
16. Over/under brewed tea. 
17. Stepping on something wet while wearing socks. 
18. Burning the popcorn in the microwave. 
19. Cold car seats in the winter. 
20. Having a restaurant table indoors while it's sunny outside. 
21. Pouring cereal into a bowl without first checking to see if I had Almond Milk. I didn't.
22. Facebook Status with 0 likes. 
23. 30 second Ads before your YouTube video. 
24. Bought new shampoo. Forgot to bring it in the shower. 
25. I have more clothes than hangers. 

Here is my challenge for you. Look at your life and figure out what some of your First World Problems are. Do you complain about them a lot? Are they really that big of a deal?

Next I want you to take a moment to realize what you are really grateful for.
I promise you, this will make you so much happier.
The choice is up to you.

Blog to you later!
Love,
Manders

Week 2 of Teaching

Hola!

Here are my reflections from Week 2. Can't believe I only have 4 days of teaching left.
Click here to read Week 1 reflections. 

These past 2 weeks have flown by!

Day 5 of teaching: Well, first of all, I told Bill Griesar (who directs the whole NW Noggin Program & is one of my professors at PSU) that I almost got struck by lightning last week & that I also saw the BOOK OF MORMON musical recently. He knows all the words to some of the songs! We ended up singing some of them together. It was hilarious! Then he said I almost got struck by lightning probably because I like that musical. Haha… possibly.

So, onto the teaching part! Today was quite a struggle with the kids. They were all super tired & very disrespectful at points. So, I decided to take them outside to get some fresh air (it was also super stuffy in that classroom). I had them line up & demonstrate different parts of a neuron (dendrites, soma, nucleus, axon, myelin sheath, & terminal branches). I had them use a stick that they passed along, which was in representation of a neurotransmitter.

Back in class they were being really rowdy & didn’t want to participate. I felt like I was pulling teeth at times!

Then I went over Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs & I asked how many students had breakfast this morning. Only ½ raised their hands. Aha, there was the problem; they needed their physiological needs (1st level in the pyramid) met in order to concentrate. So, I went over this!

Then I read a quote from “The Fault In Our Stars” that actually challenges this theory. Hazel, who has lung cancer says: “According to Maslow, I was stuck on the second level of the pyramid, unable to feel secure in my health and therefore unable to reach for love and respect and art and whatever else, which is, utter horseshit: The urge to make art or contemplate philosophy does not go away when you are sick. Those urges just become transfigured by illness.
Maslow's pyramid seemed to imply I was less human than other people, and most people seemed to agree with him.”

I think this was the highlight of my day if I were to pick one. Them realizing certain needs have to be met in order to succeed in life. While it was super challenging today, I’m really proud of myself for enduring & for staying disgustingly positive. I feel like Unikitty from the Lego Movie. Haha!

Jeff's creepy clown cup.

Day 6 of teaching: How are we already halfway through the program? It is flying by! 

Today went so much better. Gavin and I listened and applied Myriah's suggestions to our lesson. We showed the vocab on the doc cam before jumping into the powerpoint. Today I also made sure to call out everyone by name. I have them down, which is something I am really proud of!  Everyday it is getting easier being up there. I've gained so much confidence through this program. 

The kids were way more engaged than they were yesterday. Another thing that helped was that when Gavin started talking, I sat down with the kids instead of standing up at the front. I also asked that Christina and Emma (our teacher aids) sit at the tables with the kids to model good behavior and I think this helped out a lot in comparison to yesterday.

Another great thing about today was that we had them turn and talk to each other throughout the powerpoint and then share with the class as a whole.  

Rebecca was in our room today and it was really great because she added a lot of information in our lessons. The kids were really engaged. One kid who doesn't always participated asked Rebecca a bunch of great questions. 

We were told today to be more engaging, so Gavin and I are definitely going to work on that. I think tomorrow will be more engaging just because we have a lot of different activities planned. I will definitely be more theatrical when speaking to get their attention. 

I always love talking one on one with the kids. I can definitely connect with them that way, it's just connecting with them as a whole class that can be challenging.

I'm optimistic for tomorrow! I'm excited that they have read "Rat Park."

One of the kids wrote this for Tuesday's art project. Made me chuckle!

Day 7 of teaching: It's crazy how one day (yesterday) your class can be totally great and the next day well... it doesn't go so well.

I can't believe tomorrow is already the end of Week 2! Only 5 more days of teaching.

Today we did the rubber hand illusion and talked about emotions vs. feelings and perception and how to make the best out of high school.

So, honestly today was actually kind of rough. The kids were super rowdy. I tried Kerry's method of having them stand up at one point and shaking out their energy. Ha! That went well. Some wouldn't even stand out of their seats and once everyone did sit back down the ones that refused to get up were now standing. I was slightly loosing it, but I stayed uber positive and energetic and I think that's why I was so burnt out by the end. I felt like I'd been attacked by a swarm of dementors, feasting on my soul. Ok, I realize that's rather dramatic, but, um, yeah, that's how teaching high school feels sometimes.

Some positives. Today when talking about the amygdala, I slammed my hands down on a desk, scared the crap out of the class, and then asked them what part of their brain were activated. Haha, that was pretty fun, but my palms stung/throbbed afterwards, which is fine because 1) it was priceless and 2) they learned what the amygdala is responsible for.

Another thing that went great was that while the class discussed amongst themselves about a thing in their life in which they don't have control over I went to the very back of the room to talk with this kid we call Pinneapple (who has been goofing off lately, so that's why he was there alone). He was very quiet, which was unlike him, so I sat down with him and asked him:" What is something in your life that you don't have control over and really bothers you?"
He responded with "school."
I agreed with him and then we got into a conversation about my high school experience and how I went through 7 different back procedures. I told him how I hated high school and my life because I always came across as grumpy or uninterested in people when really I was just in a lot of pain or drugged. I talked about how I hated being judged, but then realized that I had been doing the same to people. We talked about my wake-up call at 16 and how everyone is fighting a battle in his or her life and how you have to cut people slack. We also discussed about looking at the big picture. I told him that all my back pain stuff happened over 5 years, which is 22% of my life, but the longer I live the smaller that number will get. I told him that while 4 years of high school is going to seem like forever in the moment, it will just be a small part in his life, but that he still needs to use the best of it. He was smiling and then offered some ideas as to how he could make the best of high school.

We had a great talk and that was the highlight of my day; It's something I'll never forget. I love sitting down one-on-one with these kids. I care about every single one of them and want them to succeed. So, even though today was rough and I felt like my soul had been attacked by dementors, I'm still alive and looking forward to tomorrow because conversations like this are so worth it.

There is always so much litter on my walk to Madison High School, which is down 82nd Avenue. This doesn't make me sad, but rather determined. After I'm done teaching, I'm heading back out to 82nd Ave. w/my trash picker upper thingy & will clean the streets. Anyhow, long story short, I was trekking through many puddles this morning in my TOMS & found this gorgeous leaf & I'm just glad that at the end of the day I remembered this one beautiful leaf rather than dwelled on the street swamped w/trash. :)

Day 8 of teaching: Week 2 is over! This is crazy. I can't believe how fast it has gone by. 

Today we taught the kids about neural plasticity. It was a little different, different in a good way, though! I liked (and I'm sure that the rest of the kids liked) that we did more discussions/activities than lecturing today, which was something that happened yesterday and probably the reason why yesterday went so poorly as far as getting their attention. Also, I think they enjoyed the quirkiness of the powerpoint. I'm so glad we went over the powerpoint and activities the day before. I think we should do this more often. They were definitely listening and cracking up more today. 

Although there were definitely some challenges for this week, I think it went much better than last week because Gavin and I have found a good flow in the classroom, even Rebecca commented on this, which was definitely nice to hear. Since we are building relationships with the kids and getting to know them better, we know how and when to direct the conversation and when to switch gears when something is not running as smoothly.

Out of all the activities, they seemed more engaged with Activity 3, which actually surprised me because it involved listing off ways to make one's brain healthier compared to just talking about what they were good at and why they are good at it in Activity 2. I think as a teen introspection is very difficult. 

However, the thing that surprised me the most about today was when Gavin and I kind of went off on a tangent about Synesthesia and showed a video and then at the end of the youtube clip I told the class that I am a synesthete. I associate colors with numbers. I told them that 0 has no color, 1 is white, 2 is blue, 3 is lime green, 4 is pink, 5 is scarlet, 6 is brown, 7 is mustard yellow, 8 is purple, and 9 is black. They were so interested in this! Then they wanted to quiz me to see if this was true or if I was just making it up. I think this was the highlight of my day!

I'm really excited about the primate exhibit next week!

Super intense poster in one of the science class rooms...

13 Practical Ways to Exercise Your Brain

Hola! 

Last summer I read a book called "Making a Good Brain Great" by Dr. Daniel Amen and loved it! (That's right, I read a book all on brains over the summer. I'm a neuro nerd!) 

I thought I'd share this list Dr. Amen wrote of 13 ways to exercise your brain and to make your life more interesting. 

1. Dedicate yourself to new learning. 
2. Take a class about something new & interesting. 
3. Cross-train at work. 
4. Improve your skills at something you already do. 
5. Limit TV for kids & adults. 
6. Limit video games. 
7. Join a reading group that keeps you accountable for new learning. 
8. Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. 
9. Break the routine of your life to stimulate new parts of the brain.
1. Try a new sport. 
2. Take a class in a subject you know nothing about. 
3. Learn new cooking recipes. 
4. Do some volunteer work. 
5. Try a different shampoo, etc. 
6. Go to church or a different one. 
7. Go to an opera or symphony concert. 
8. Join a self-development group. 
9. Spend time reading the dictionary or a reference book--learn a new word each day. 
10. Take time out of each day to strengthen a relationship--spouse, lover, child, or friend. 
11. Make a new friend--call up someone & ask him or her to do something with you. 
12. Contact an old friend you haven't talked to in a while. 
13. Submit a new idea at work, maybe even one you've thought about for a while but were too embarrassed to mention because you thought no one would be interested in it. 
14. Forgive someone you hold a grudge against. 
10. Compare how similar things work. 
1. Learning to see, hear, feel, or taste subtle changes will enhance your sensory ability & stimulate brain growth.
11. Visit new & different places. 
12. Cultivate smart friends.
13. Treat learning problems to help kids and adults stay in school. 

Are you doing any of these things now? Which one of these do you need to work on?

Recap of this Week's Teachings

Hola!

I don't have as much time to blog as I used to, so instead I've just been writing really long Facebook posts. Here are all my posts on how teaching is going though.

Day 1 of teaching: Taught my first day of class today! It was challenging but fun. Teaching Neuroscience to a group of about 15 incoming Madison High School freshmen. I'm going to grow a lot from this experience.

Day 2 of teaching: Today we taught about the 4 lobes of the brain as well as the cerebellum & brainstem. It was really exciting to see these kids go from very sleepy individuals at the beginning to yelling out answers and raising their hands at the end. They definitely appreciated my effort to remember their names & how they were doing that day before I went over an activity with them. Staying positive & energetic & being in constant engagement for 2 hours is definitely tiresome by the end (I always want to take a nap after teaching), but it is definitely rewarding when you think: "Hey, they totally understood and were excited by what I taught them today! That feels great!" I have a much deeper appreciation for teachers now & I think that's a great lesson within itself.

Day 3 of teaching: Today was a little bit tougher. Kids were really tired & difficult to engage. They definitely have the lobes of brain down, which is awesome! We went over the structure & function of neurons & how action potentials work, which is even dense material in college. I was really proud of them for what they did remember though. Highlight of my day was when it came to the neuron drawings.1 kid wasn't drawing & when I asked him why he said: "I suck at art."
Me: "No you don't. No one who tries sucks. There are no rules in art."
Him: "Yes there are. Our middle school teacher was so strict. She'd mark us down if we didn't draw a perfect circle with a protractor. We had too many guidelines. We couldn't be creative." He then added, "It's like taking away our rights."
I noted how frustrating that must have been & how all the art projects we do in class will not restrict his creativity like that. I remember him smiling a little and as challenging as today was his smile was worth it.

Day 4 of teaching: Today went so much better! The kids definitely like Gavin and me. For some reason they kept asking us to do a rap battle, which I thought was hilarious. I ran with it! I was like: "Yeah, we can do it as long as we're rapping about the brain!" We demonstrated the all or nothingness of action potentials by dropping mentos into diet coke. This was my first time ever doing it, so I actually screamed louder than the kids because most of them had already done it before. The coke shot SO high though it was so fun! Then we went back inside & reviewed the structure/functions of neurons & how neurotransmitters work & also talked about stress. I went over the sympathetic & parasympathetic nervous system & also talked about cortisol & the pros & cons of stress. Then Gavin & I led a guided meditation, which was more of a comedic sketch & had the kids cracking up. I made Gavin read from the script because I kept laughing. In the end though I talked about how important laughter is to reducing stress & how we all need to find something in our day (whether it's finding a quiet place or laughing w/friends) that recharges us somehow. It was a fantastic day! Can't believe I've already completed & survived my first week of teaching Neuroscience to high school students!

Lightning Strike

Hola!

So, today has been a little crazy. A video I took yesterday was featured on Good Morning America and apparently ABC World News. Haha! It's a little unreal.

So, here's what happened. Yesterday, Sunday, July 13th, there was an insanely loud thunder and lightning storm right over my house in Salem. Our miniature horses were outside running around, not taking shelter, so we wanted to get them inside the barn where they'd be safer. Well, my step-dad Mike and I went out into the garage and before we went out into the storm I turned on my iPhone's camera and recorded our journey out to the horses. As Mike and I ran outside I said: "You never know what I might catch on camera."

Well, as we were running out I yelled "Going into the storm!" and then chuckled because nothing was happening, but then immediately afterwards this lightning bolt strikes the ground a couple feet from us and you can see the flash in the video. Apparently, I don't respond to fear in a normal way like falling to the ground, instead I just laugh like a maniac.

Anyways, after this happened my mom ran out and made us come back inside, get the minis later. I watched the video over and I almost peed my pants I thought it was so funny. So, I sent it to my local news station KATU News and then they sent it to Good Morning America, who then contacted me to see if it was OK to air the clip. I was like: Of course!

And then they did this morning and this evening! So, it's been pretty exciting. Haha! Glad I didn't die. Glad I find humor in the strangest things--keeps my life interesting for sure!

PS

I just sent it to the Ellen Degeneres Show, so cross your fingers it gets played on there too!

CHANGE: I've Got the Power!

Hola!

I'll add it to my bucket list. 

So yesterday I went to church with my friends and one of them asked me what I did earlier that day.
Me: I went on a hike, did laundry, and cleaned the kitchen. 
Her: What? You didn't go swimming with whales?
Clearly, my friends think my life is way more exciting than it really is. Haha!

However, I'm really glad they see me this way because it means I'm doing something right. At the beginning of summer in 2013 I had a bit of a setback that caused me to be down in the dumps and instead of doing something to climb out of that dark hole I just curled up into a little ball and didn't even try and of course this only made me more depressed.

Never letting Summer of '13 happen again. 

There's this great quote by Dale Carnegie that goes: Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.

So, that's exactly what I've done this summer! I am keeping ridiculously busy because action feels so good. I love working my body and brain and just trying new things and being alive.

(It should be pretty obvious by now that I love quotes.) Here's a great one I think about all the time by Karen Salmansohn: What if I told you 10 years from now your life would be exactly the same? Doubt you'd be happy. So, why are you afraid of change?

Here were some of the things I've wanted to change over the years since I graduated high school (mind you, many of these goals stemmed from being in and out of the hospital for five years).

1. Be more extroverted. 
2. Change up the wardrobe. 
3. Get published.
4. Volunteer more. 
5. Exercise more. 
6. Try new things even if they're scary. 

And so far I've accomplished all these things! Yay!

Being more extroverted. Actually funny story, I was at a party on the 4th of July and someone asked me if I was an extrovert. I actually had to think about this because for the longest time I identified as an introvert and was labeled as such by many of my teachers during high school, but then one of my friends was nodding his head with absolute certainty and kept saying: No, you're definitely an extrovert. 

I find this very interesting. 

(Here is a super early post I wrote about saying hi to people.)

I like meeting new people, learning from them, and cultivating relationships. That's why I like to make sure I do something with someone every day of the week. 

Pizza dinner with Ashley.

Hiking up San Francisco hill w/Mariko. 

Lunch on the waterfront with Rashika.

Rockaway beach with Rashika!

Lake Tahoe with Jamie.

Ruby Jewels w/Ashley, Amy, Joanna, and Bekah!

The wardrobe... Well, I feel like I can do an entire blog post on this subject, but let's just say that my roommate Jamie helped me out big time when it came to this department. It was like an episode from What Not To Wear. The key is to be open to change and to try new things. 

Before 

Um...

So bright!

Yes, this is just embarrassing...

After

Getting published. I'm a Chicken Soup for the Soul contributor! 

Winning Life Back (published)

The Time My Horse Knew Better and Faith Not Fear (not published yet, but hopefully) 

Pain Reveals You (unpublished) 

Volunteer. I'm doing more of this lately. Helping others and doing things that will make the world a better place is so rewarding and makes me so much happier! I love volunteering with SOLVE and the Red Cross and I volunteered once with Night Strike (like to do more of that). I am going to volunteer at the Hood to Coast this summer; also I pick up trash for fun! 

Picking up trash w/Ryoma and Takaho.

Exercise more. I go walking up San Francisco hill just about every single day, do yoga, zumba, and water aerobics. 

Try new things even if they are scary. I went swing dancing the other week even though I wasn't too keen on doing it, but it's good to try new things. I sucked at it and it was horrifying and my palms sweated like crazy and my back hurt a lot because someone dipped me but didn't know I had screws in my back that can't let my spine bend that way, but I went out of my comfort zone and learned for sure that I do not like swing dancing. I can choose what I do, but I can't choose what I like to do. 

April and I before Swing Dancing.

It's weird how sky diving doesn't faze me, but swing dancing does (anyhow, that's a whole other post in itself). 

Also, I am teaching Neuroscience to high schoolers this summer! Which is kind of terrifying, but it's a good kind of terrifying.

I'll write more on teaching later, but the point I want to make here is that if you want a different life, make one. You have the power to do so! 

And after much thought I'd have to say that my life is pretty dang exciting and I'm glad I've made it that way. 

What kind of changes do you want to make in your life? 

Love, 

Manders

P.S: Some suggested videos.

Confession: I Slip Notes Into Books & Magazines

Hola!

I have a confession to make.

Last Sunday, on my flight back from Sacramento, California I got an idea. Normally when I travel by airplane I'll draw one of my mad cows and write something like "Have a nice flight!" and then slip that piece of paper into one of the provided magazines. This time I did something different; I wrote a note on the back side of my ticket that said something like: "Hi there! I hope you have a nice flight and that the plane doesn't crash. If you are looking for a great young adult novel to read. Please check out my story 'The Savior.'" And then I told them how to find this blog. In the last part of my message I wrote: "Please let me know if you found this note."

So hopefully this happens because that would be really awesome!

Ok, so today I did a similar thing. I was hanging out with my friend Keiana in the Beaverton Powell's Bookstore and decided to slip some notes into several books. I ended up writing about 6 notes on the back of a couple of movie tickets and (clean) napkins that read: "If you liked this book you should check out 'The Savior' by Amanda Yancey. Google it!" But we didn't just slip them into any books. We slipped them into books that had just come out or that were probably going to be read soon because the movie adaptation is coming out this year. Here are some books I slipped my notes into.

1. Dreams of Gods & Monsters
2. Champion
3. Sinner
4. The Mortal Instruments: City of Heavenly Fire
5. The Maze Runner
6. Mockingjay

Yeah, I'll admit I felt a little weird doing this... anytime someone talked over the PA system I swear it was because they were going to come arrest me or something. Haha! But it was also really exciting and who knows! Maybe someone will actually read my story because of it and maybe they'll even write to me after they find the note.  

Basically what I looked liked as I slipped the notes in. 

This morning I received a lovely email from a super nice girl. She wrote: "Hi! You're Amanda, right? I read your Chicken Soup for the Soul story and I want to be friends." This made me super happy inside. It's a really rewarding feeling to know that people are reading your writings and its making some sort of impact on them. 

Slowly but surely my dreams are coming true and it's really exciting! 

I'll definitely write more later because I have a ton of things to share with you, but for now I seriously need to go to bed. I am super tired, but I thought I'd share that funny (well, I think it's funny, but then again I think everything is funny) confession with you. 

Blog to you later!

Love, 

Manders 

P.S:

I feel like this video clip kind of pertains to this post. At least Keiana and I laughed over it today.
